Webinar
As
inclusive design practices catch on, people in building tech tools are
asking, "Who really manages the product roadmap? Who ultimately
benefits?" This session features leaders from two startups currently
working out a more cooperative approach to product design. They will
tell us about the design practices that incorporate users, workers, and
owners, including the trial and error and lessons along the way. We'll
dedicate time to a facilitated discussion based on questions from
participants, and conclude with strategies for more cooperative product
design that you can try out in your startup or organization, too.
